GuP: Fast Subgraph Matching by Guard-based Pruning
Summary: GuP uses guard-based pruning for subgraph matching, attaching guards to candidates to prune non-productive search states. This adaptive, state-aware filtering dramatically reduces search space and enables hard queries beyond prior methods.
